Windows Defender Application Guard raises your level of protection considerably, as it protects against advanced, targeted threats. Consequently, this cloud-based tool can provide an extra level of protection against both phishing and malware attacks in addition to the traditional cybersecurity awareness training of staff.
In addition, it can notify Windows 10 users when they are about to visit suspicious websites and emails because it compares their reliability against a Microsoft’s blacklist. SmartScreen is a built-in feature that scans and blocks execution of known malicious programs. A deep scan for rootkits once or twice a month is always a good idea. WDA automatically scans each newly downloaded file once you proceed to open it as part of the real-time protection defense posture. The firewall supports three different network configurations (Domain, Private and Public) however, in principle, this feature is enabled by default (as in compliance with the “security by default” rule) and does not need any adjustments to be effective. But what is particularly good about WDA is that it does not require any manual configuration or any support whatsoever (other than the automatic updates).įor example, WDA comes with a built-in firewall and a safe browsing environment that will protect you from the most common threats. WDA’s UI is more user-friendly than what most other antivirus programs have to offer. Keeping all software up to date at all times is of paramount importance. This is the most important security setting for any Windows 10 device. Windows Update is there, as usual, to fix past bugs and introduce new functions. Let’s look at some of the most prominent security features of Windows 10.
